Look under your start menu/all programs for A2A 182 aircraft config tool, run that and you will see both options for 3D lighting and GPS options.

Win8 and up it will be start screen, select all programs and and locate and run tool....just a word of caution as there will also be an A2A input config tool as well so double check that you are opening the aircraft config tool.

Hello,

just to add to taildraggins reply, the manual for your simulation can be found under your start menu >> all programs >> A2A Simulations.

Thank you Lewis. I've just noted that that was explained in the manual. :oops:

Greetings,

I'm having the same problem, 750 not showing up in VC. I did a re-install of the C182 and have not updated it yet. Installed the Garmin Lite product first. Installed Flight1 750. Used the A2A configurator and highlighted the Flight1 option, but I'm not sure it sees the 750 itself. If I click on the Mindstar option beneath the Flight1, I am presented between a choice of two of their products (though I don't have anything from them installed), while nothing shows up under the Flight1 link when it's clicked. I'm not sure if that is normal or not. When I run the Flight1 ConfigP3D tool and select the C182, nothing shows up in the panel preview, just a blank blue box with the floating 750. This is my first standalone avionics purchase and I'm pretty confident that I have messed something up, but any info from you all would be greatly appreciated!

BTW I'm running P3D 2.4 in Windows 10 Tech Preview

i7-6700k @ 4.5 GHz
16GB GSkill Ripjaws 5 @ 2300MHz

Hi,
I had exactly the same behaviour as Thundercat710.
I already reinstall the F1 GTN750 with admin rights but stills the same.

Thank you in avance for any possible help.

Hi,
Just to share that with the last update A2A published all got ok in the VC panel.
Another fact was that i installed a more recent version of the Garmin Training Lite Pack (5003) and not the suggested one (2003) and with this, the screen got alive :-)
Now all it's ok.

So just to be clear (I'm new at this):

I have the C182 (A2A) running FSX SE. Can I buy the GTN 750 (from http://www.flight1.com/products.asp?product=f1gtn) and use it in my C182?
When I open the configurator it does not give me the option for the GTN 750, is this added after I buy and download it from said site?
Se the pics for what I mean:

I have a clean install of FSX SE, A2A and Flight1 GTN 750
When I go into freeflight and load it up I get two error messages 20 and 21 (see pics).
Any suggestions? I've tried searching for hours, but I can't find anything.

You need to click on flight 1 and then select the 750. In the image posted you have selected mindstar.

Hello,

I'm having issues with the F1 750 after installing the latest a2a update. I select on flight one, press okay, then close the module. Upon sim reload I see the 2D "GTN Stack"; however, I'm unable to switch to the GTN VC stack.

Input would be greatly appreciated.

Hello,

this is an old thread it might be bets to start a new thread with your exact issue. For example you mention 2d but our tool only deals with the GPS in the VC. It sounds like you are maybe running the flight1 tool which adds 2d rather than our tool.

thanks,
